Hi everyone! This is my first post or topic, though I've come to really rely on the advice and encouragement I find here. What a wonderful community. My question- or rather my worry- is this: I've barely lost any weight in the last 2 weeks, even though I'm only 4 weeks post op. My first week I lost about 10 lbs., but I wasn't really able to eat or drink much after all the medications. Once they were out of my system, I felt so much better! Over the next 2 weeks, I lost about 6 lbs., but nothing in the last week. The scale just sits and stares at me. Other than that, I'm doing really well- exercising, drinking lots of Water, trying to get enough Protein. I will say that I did not stay on the liquid diet after the first 2 weeks and have moved onto to almost any soft(ish) food, usually high in protein. I can eat chicken, turkey, yogurt, hummus, even vegetables.... almost anything with no problems. Small bites, chew-chew-chew and stop when you feel full. Even though I'm eating such small amounts, the WEIGHT-- it stays!! Is this normal? Will it start to fall off? Are there other people who did well off the liquid/pureed diet or did it bite them in the butt??

Oh, but avocados are so gross!! Everyone loves them, but I just can't stand em. Lol.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. I'll stick with it and maybe look at the scale less often. And diannepj1960, I WISH I was never hungry! I fill up quickly, but when my stomach empties its like someone threw a switch that starts blazing "I'm HUNGRY!!" Seriously is annoying. I'm hoping it goes away- I wanted to be one of the ones that forgets to eat....
